Recalls
Searchable archive of product recalls from the FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, NHTSA, and EPA — translated into plain English, severity-scored from objective criteria, and always linked back to the original government notice.
Every recall on this list has been scored 1–5 against an objective rubric from the agency’s own classification, presence of reported injuries or deaths, distribution scope, and hazard type. The colored severity badge on each card is the score — 5 (Critical) means deaths or serious injuries are reported, 4 (Severe) means significant injury or hospitalization risk, and 3 (High) means a known hazard with no confirmed harm yet. Filter to 3+ (High and above) if you want to skip routine Class-III notices.
The agency chips above control which streams are visible. FDA spans food, drugs, and medical devices. USDA FSIS is meat, poultry, and processed egg products. CPSC is household consumer products. NHTSA is vehicles, tires, and child seats. Nationwide on a card means the recall affects every US state — most do — while a state list means distribution was limited.

Minimum severity
Philips is recalling Achieva 1.5T MRI systems because the gradient coil component could fail and produce smoke or fire. The recall affects 2 units distributed worldwide.
Aizu Olympus is recalling the Transnasal Esophagovideoscope (Model PEF-V) because the channel air drying process was not validated, resulting in some units with wet channels that could cause infection.
SunMed Holdings is recalling SafeSpot manual resuscitators with integrated manometers due to a backwards leak that allows CO2 rebreathing. The defect affects multiple accessory configurations distributed nationwide.
Aizu Olympus is recalling 1577 ureteralscope units due to an unvalidated channel air drying process that left some units with residual water after repair, creating a contamination and infection risk.
Aizu Olympus is recalling 823 ultrasonic bronchoscopes (models BF-UC180F, BF-UC190F) because the channel air drying process was not validated, and some repaired units retained water that could cause contamination and infection.
Aizu Olympus sigmoidovideoscope (model PCF-S) units are being recalled due to an unvalidated channel drying process. Some repaired units returned with water in channels, risking contamination and infection.
Biomet is recalling Compress Device Segmental Anchor Plugs (18 MM) due to metal burrs in transverse holes that may prevent proper drill or pin placement, potentially extending surgery time.
Aizu Olympus is recalling HYF-XP hysterofiberscopes because the channel air drying process was not validated. Some repaired units have wet channels that could harbor contamination and pose infection risk.
Philips is recalling the Intera 1.5T Power/Pulsar MRI system due to potential failure in the gradient coil component that could produce smoke and/or fire.
Biomet is recalling Compress Device Segmental Anchor Plugs due to metal burrs in transverse holes that may prevent proper device function during surgery. The defect could result in extended surgical time.
SunMed Holdings is recalling Ventlab Horizon manual resuscitators due to a backwards leak in the integrated manometer that allows carbon dioxide rebreathing. The affected devices were manufactured from September 2018 to the present and distributed nationwide.
Aizu Olympus is recalling Hysterovideoscope Model HYF-V units (27 devices) because the channel air drying process was not validated. Water remaining in device channels could pose an infection risk.
Biomet's Compress Device Segmental Anchor Plugs are being recalled due to metal burrs in assembly holes. The defect prevents drill pins from passing through, potentially extending surgical time during implantation procedures.
Aizu Olympus is recalling uretero-reno fiberscopes because the channel air drying process was not validated. A small percentage of repaired devices had residual water in the channels, creating a risk of contamination and infection.
Biomet is recalling Compress Device Short Anchor Plugs due to metal burrs that may prevent proper surgical installation and extend operation time. Distribution includes US nationwide and eight other countries.
SunMed Holdings is recalling BreathTech manual resuscitators because the integrated manometer can leak, allowing patients to rebreathe exhaled CO2 during emergency airway management.
The FDA is recalling Alinity c Iron Reagent lots due to inaccurate results. The reagent produces falsely elevated patient iron values and may prevent proper quality control verification.
Biomet is recalling Compress Device Segmental Anchor Plugs due to metal burrs in transverse holes that may prevent drill or pins from passing through, potentially extending surgical time.
Biomet is recalling Compress Device Short Anchor Plugs due to potential metal burrs in the transverse holes that may prevent proper placement of drill pins during surgery, potentially extending surgical time.
BioFire FilmArray TORCH diagnostic devices have a power switch that may degrade from internal arcing and carbon buildup, potentially causing electrical short, device overheating, or failure to power on.
Aizu Olympus is recalling cystonephroscope endoscopes due to an unvalidated air drying process that allowed water to remain in instrument channels. Retained moisture poses a risk of contamination and infection.
Aizu Olympus is recalling 61 tracheal videoscopes (Model LF-V) due to an unvalidated air drying process that left water in channels after repair. Water in the endoscope channels may become contaminated and pose an infection risk.
Roche is recalling Tina-quant D-Dimer Test System kits because they produce elevated results when used with lithium-heparin plasma samples, potentially affecting diagnostic accuracy.
Philips Ingenia 1.5T CX MRI systems may experience gradient coil failure that could produce smoke and/or fire. The FDA has classified this as a Class II recall affecting 48 units distributed nationwide and internationally.
Instrumentation Laboratory is recalling GEM Premier 3000 PAK cartridges due to a defect that can produce falsely high blood oxygen readings. The inaccuracy may prevent detection of dangerously low oxygen levels and delay necessary treatment.
